Newark —
Seven students from the University of Delaware Department of Fashion and Apparel Studies have been named winners in the 2012 YMA Fashion Scholarship Fund competition.
Five students won scholarships in the category of apparel design, including Dana Finkle, Christine Howard, Stacey Lipschitz, Alexandra McKay and Emma Sidoriak. The other two winners, Sabriay Jefferson and Michelle Ma, were awarded scholarships in the fashion merchandising category.
Each student will receive a $5,000 scholarship and an internship at a top retail company with an executive mentor who will assist them in networking.
The University of Delaware has competed in the competition for the past two years and has had the most student winners in that time period.
“The fact that UD has the highest number of winners each year speaks to the quality of our program in both apparel design and fashion merchandising,” Chair of the Department of Fashion and Apparel Studies Marsha Dickson said, according to a press release.
The students received their awards on Jan. 10 at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City.
“Meeting other award winners and speaking to leaders in the fashion industry were amazing experiences that I will take with me throughout the rest of my career,” Sidoriak said, in the press release. “The event was inspirational, and I look forward to working hard and applying again next year.”
